What you say is obvious to us, but is it obvious to people with “other assumptions” as the basis of their worldview?
Dems using a obviously failed Obamacare as an argument to make it even more government run to make it work is like the GOP (who cut taxes early on GWB) trying to convince voters that the collapse of the economy in the last~ 2+ years of GWB presidency shows that we need even more tax cuts like the ones Bush passed to fix it.
Many here scratched their heads : “Why don't they believe it?? Reagan....Carter....Bwany Fwank’
Similar lesson. Results are 100X stronger than words are.
The one you may be thinking of is
“Which should the government do to reduce the deficit, reform social security and medicare by reducing future benefits(or raise age) , or raise taxes??”
I think this is why the deficit scares so many Republicans.
If GWB and Pelosi got together and passed a big comprehensive health care bill in 2007 you can bet we would have single payer by now.
